	        Intro: G C G 

      C                 G 
Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem 

       C               G 
Cannot hold you to its heat 

              C                   G 
You're temperature is too hot for tamin' 

             C                       G 
Your flamin' feet are burnin' up the street. 

C3rd G3rd     C3rd     G 
I am homeless come and take me 

C3rd   G3rd          C3rd       D 
to the reach of your rattle and drums. 

C      G          C       D       G 
Let me know, babe,   all about my fortune 

      C       D        G       C  D {strum eighths} G C D G C G 
down along my restless palms. 

      C                  G 
Gypsy gal, you got me swallowed 

       C            G 
I have fallen far beneath 

           C                G 
your perly eyes so fast and slashing 

         C3rd     C       G 
and your flashing diamond teeth. 

    C3rd     G3rd       C3rd     G 
The night is pitchblack come and make my 

C3rd      G3rd       C3rd     D 
pale face fit in the place of pleas. 

C      G          C      D      G 
Let me know, babe,   I'm nearly drownin' 

        C       D          G      C  D G C D G C G 
If it's you, my lifeline's trace. 

G3rd      C3rd      C    G 
I've been wondering all about me 

G3rd C3rd       C        G 
ever since I've seen you there 

        G3rd           C3rd     C          G 
on your cliffs of your wild cat charms I'm riding 

  G        C3rd            C          G 
I know I'm round you but I don't know where. 

C3rd     G3rd      C3rd     G 
You have slayed me you have made me 

C3rd        G3rd            C3rd   D 
I've got to laugh half ways off my heels 

  C      G          C         D     G 
I got to know, babe,  oh will you surround me 

         C            D      G     C  G 
so I can know if I am really real. 


When it says 'C3rd it means' C on the 3rd fret. 

Overall, enjoy!
